COLETTE

Liked: Cleanliness
Ok but would not be my first choice staff lovely !
Staff very friendly ! Not too impressed with the room very basic smell of dampness continually despite been supplied with an oil filled radiator thank goodness for heat ! Breakfast ok but too cold to be served outside on the terrace was not my first choice as other booking cancelled our stay spent 2 nights instead of 3 booked !

the customers are very nice. We agree with him just for breakfast they can choose between the Terrace (it's cold in the morning it's very normal) and a low fireplace.

Disappointed
Condition of the hotel is much worse than we ecpected. The smell of humidity in the room was awful. The owner wants to leave the room key in unatendet place where other guests have access to it. The place doesnt look like the photos show. It doesnt worth the price.

Nice little riad close to everything. Nice breakfast and friendly staff. Only downside is that it's close to a club, so if you like to enjoy a few drinks till 1:30 am it's a great location, if you are a light sleeper you might find it difficult to sleep before 1:30 am

Amazing Riad. I have stayed at many riad’s in Morocco over the years and this one is by far the best. Property upkeep is amazing, small touches like fresh flowers don’t go unnoticed, and the staff are amazing!

Pictures are totally wrong
Did not stay the night. Went somewhere else. No money returned. Hotel . Com did no refund me either. The photos are totally not correct.Terrible. Don't go their. Only the suit has windows. All other rooms are like black shoe boxes, no window no light. I checked several rooms and all the same. No refund
Je comprend bien que la maison ne vous a pas plu et j'en suis désolée. Il semble que vous n'ayez pas bien compris le concept du riad où les fenêtres des pièces donnent toutes sur le patio. Ceci dit, toutes nos chambres et salles de bain sont donc pourvues de fenêtres donnant sur le patio. Concernant le remboursement, suite à votre attitude pour le moins excessive et bruyante lors de votre arrivée, absolument rien n'a été prélevé par nous et j'ai immédiatement informé et donné mon accord à Hotel.com pour qu'ils vous rembourse l'intégralité des sommes qu'ils avaient perçues.

Paradise in Essaouria
My husband and I couldn't have anticipated a more fabulous experience. The owner and staff were the friendliest and kindest hosts. They even served us breakfast after the set time frame and said they considered us family. We stayed in the Belem room with a private terrace that has incredible ocean views. The bed was very comfortable and the room plenty spacious. The rooftop view was equally amazing, plus it gave an additional view of the restaurant adjacent to the riad which allowed for viewing and listening to their music, and city views of incredible moonlit evenings. The house cats were very friendly and would often pay a visit if we invited them inside. Overall it was a week in paradise. We highly recommend this riad.

Merci de votre gentil commentaire. Nous sommes malheureusement conscient du problème de lumière dans la rue qui fait l'objet d'une guerre constante avec la municipalité dont dépend l'éclairage extérieur. En espérant avoir le plaisir de vous accueillir de nouveau au Dar Loulema.

Beautiful Essaouria Sanctuary
Absolutely LOVED our stay at Loulema! Breakfast on the roof terrace, gorgeous plants and such lovely accommodating staff- couldn't have asked for a better hotel. Right in the center of everything but tucked away and super quiet so you never feel like you're sleeping in the middle of the square. Will stay here again in a heartbeat!!!

Hotel muy bonito y bien situado.
El hotel es precioso y la terraza es un gran punto positivo. Puedes ver toda la ciudad y el mar. El único pero es la cercanía de los bares nocturnos con rooftop ya que se puede oír algo la música.

Lieu plein de charme
Hôtel charmant et calme, avec une belle décoration et des terrases exceptionnelles. Personnel agréable et attentionné. Bon emplacement au coeur de la ville avec une merveilleuse vue sur la mer! Un bon service de petit déjeuner.
